"Is that true?"
Bai Qian was so angry that she punched the coffee table, "The Cheng family paid hundreds of millions of dollars in annual salary to hire them as consultants. If they cheated, that would be really abominable, right? I'll arrest them!"
"Wait a minute."
Cheng Yinuo stopped the angry Bai Qian, "I don't have evidence yet, and now is not the time to expose their true colors."
"If they are really bribed to set up a scheme to defraud our Cheng family's funds, then I will pretend to be in the dark and follow the clues to find out who is behind the scenes."
Gao Qidou closed his eyes slightly and kept smoking: "I think Song Yuanxing is a bit suspicious. Maybe Zhou Li is just a fan of the authorities."
"hope so!"
Cheng Yinuo stood up from the sofa regretfully, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked out at the bustling Manhattan business district, as if he was in a fog.
"Teacher Gao, do you know how I saw through this game at once?"
Gao Qidou shook his head: "To be honest, when you stopped raising prices, Miss, I suddenly realized that this was a scam."
Cheng Yinuo picked up the coffee on the coffee table, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Because I have obtained the "Tiger and Dragon Pan"."
"Already got it?"
Gao Qidou was so surprised that he immediately sat upright, "Did Zhu Changan help you get it?"
"yes."
Cheng Yinuo affirmed simply again.
"As I said, what you can't get is always turbulent. After you get it, you suddenly feel that it is nothing more than that. I suddenly feel that this picture is not worth 6.8 billion at all."
"But why did the buyer pay a whopping price of 6.8 billion to buy it in Paris? Then two months later, it was auctioned in New York, and the starting price was only 1 billion?"
"After some deliberation, I found that this is most likely a game."
Bai Qian put her hands in her trouser pockets, confused: "I still don't understand, why is this a game?"
With a "pop" sound, the lighter sounded, and Gao Qidou lit another cigarette.
"Let me analyze it for you."
Bai Qian looked pious: "Little girl, I am all ears."
Gao Qidou said: "To be honest, if Miss Cheng Qianjin hadn't been poisoned by Xiaoyao Zui, and the "Tiger and Dragon Pantu" echoed the prophecy of 'A dream in Chang'an, Xiaoyao Zui, a Phoenix Nirvana and a beauty will return'. Then The value of this picture will not exceed 100 million even if it lasts."
"Because everyone in the world knew that the Cheng family wanted to collect ancient paintings that contained the homophonic word for 'Phoenix Nirvana,' that's why someone made a fuss about the 'Tiger Crouching Picture' and raised it to a sky-high price of 6.8 billion."
Bai Qian was still puzzled: "But they asked for a sky-high price of 6.8 billion in Paris. How to explain this?"
Gao Qidou smiled: "It's very simple. The sellers and buyers at the Paris auction are basically the same group. They are playing the trick of selling the left hand and the right hand, purely to increase the value of the Tiger in the Picture."
"Is the seller working with the Paris auction house?" Bai Qian seemed to realize something.
Gao Qidou said: "It may be a group, or it may not be a group. After all, the Paris Auction House is one of the top ten auction houses in the world, and it is not easy to bribe them."
"In fact, if the seller and buyer were a team, they would only need to pay a commission of 2 percent of the total price to successfully stage this drama."
"130 million commission?" Bai Qian sniffed and asked.
Gao Qidou nodded: "Yes, they only needed to pay 130 million to create the illusion that "Tiger and Dragon Pan" was bought for 6.8 billion. The purpose of the fraud was the Cheng family, or Yinuo. Miss."
Cheng Yinuo agreed with Gao Qidou's analysis.
"What Teacher Gao said makes sense. Before, I judged that the seller was probably wearing a pair of trousers with the Paris auction house, but now it seems that is not the case. It is very likely that the seller and the buyer are a group, and they staged a fraud drama of buying and selling. .”
After the two of them peeled off the cocoon, the scam in Bai Qian's mind became clearer and clearer.
"After the Paris auction, the seller got nothing and even got more than 100 million yuan, so they moved the stage to New York?"
"Is such that."
Gao Qidou continued his analysis: "The people who held the tiger-jutting picture were worried about setting the price too high. Miss Yinuo refused to be fooled, so after some weighing, the starting price was finally set at 1 billion."
Cheng Yinuo slowly unfolded "Feng Qiu Huang", admiring and analyzing it at the same time.
"In order to attract me to the bait, they first used this picture to lure me to New York. After I arrived, the day before the auction was to be held, another rumor was released, saying that "Tiger Seed" would be auctioned at the auction, which made me I don’t have time to dwell on it.”
"Today, they first released "Feng Qiu Huang" and found a few agents to raise the price. The purpose was to create fierce competition."
"It can be said that if Zhu Changan hadn't found the "Tiger and Dragon Pan", my thinking might have been led by them, and I was worried about gains and losses. I was worried that the picture of Tiger and Dragon would be snatched away. It is very likely that this picture will not be taken away. If it exceeds 6.8 billion, I will take pictures without hesitation."
Gao Qidou adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose: "As long as you bid, they will make a lot of money. They can earn up to five to six billion. Even if you regret it, they can still get a guarantee of 500 million."
Bai Qian curled her lips: "It seems that this Zhu Changan is still of some use. This time he helped you save billions, Miss."
Gao Qidou originally wanted to ask "Where did he get the picture from?", but he finally swallowed it. What a smart person needs to do is to remain silent.
Cheng Yinuo returned to the sofa with the coffee cup in hand and sighed: "Looking at the performance of Teacher Song and Teacher Zhou today, I even seriously suspect that they were bribed."
"Maybe they haven't reacted yet!"
Gao Qidou helped smooth things over, "Old Song is old, and Zhou Li is a woman. Otherwise, women are said to be ignorant and short-sighted!"
Bai Qian frowned and protested dissatisfied: "Who are you talking about? Miss and I are both women!"
Gao Qidou hurriedly explained: "But you all have short hair, so you are the type with short hair and long knowledge."
Cheng Yinuo sat on the sofa, his face frosty, his eyes shining with wisdom.
She said: "On the way back, I further thought about this situation, and suddenly I felt that the reason why Qianjin got drunk and slept for eight years without waking up was probably because of this situation."
"What game?"
Gao Qidou and Bai Qian asked almost in unison.
Cheng Yinuo's cheeks twitched slightly, and it was obvious that she was in a state of extreme anger.
"I can't say it yet, but I will definitely investigate. If someone is really plotting against our Cheng family, I, Cheng Yinuo, will definitely make him pay the price!"
After a long silence, Bai Qian asked for instructions: "Then what should we do next? Miss."
"Go back home."
Cheng Yinuo turned the coffee cup in his hand to release the anger in his heart.
Bai Qian asked again: "What about Song Yuanxing and Zhou Li?"
"Don't alert the snake for now, we have to pretend that we are still in the dark. If they really cheat, I will definitely not spare them in the future. But before that, I need to use them to find out the mastermind behind the scenes."
Cheng Yinuo waved his hand and told Gao Qidou and Bai Qian to go back to their respective rooms to rest, "I'm a little tired, you all go back and rest!"
"Good night, miss."
Gao Qidou and Bai Qian said goodbye together and left Cheng Yinuo's room.
Just when Cheng Yinuo fell into a lot of confusion in order to collect the antidote map, Zhu Changan was drunk with Fang Rou.
Zhu Changan was in a good mood after making one billion in profits at once.
So she generously gave Fang Rou a one million red envelope, which made Fang Rou's bones go numb. She pestered Zhu Chang'an's elder brother and yelled at her, wanting to serve the master with all her strength.
"Come on, I'll take you out for a big meal."
Zhu Changan did not let Fang Rou cook anymore and took her to the six-star Casriel Hotel for a luxurious meal.
After eating and drinking, Zhu Changan went to the shooting club on the 49th floor and practiced marksmanship for two hours before driving home.
Today, he ate a lot of sea cucumbers and oysters. Zhu Changan was full of firepower, and of course he had to compete with Fang Rou on his skills in bed.
Her long legs are white and straight, and she will never get tired of playing for a year. Zhu Changan has only been playing for less than half a month now. How can he lose interest when he is very interested?
After a moment of confusion and clouds and rain in Wushan, Fang Rou got up and went to take a shower, while Zhu Changan came to the back hall wearing pajamas and slippers and continued to observe the world in the box.
